PROFINET diagnostics: flying blind or efficient maintenance? Part 2
The plant’s life cycle and users involved are key factors to determine the required set of diagnostic tools and functionality needed.
Diagnosing problems with PROFINET networks and other TCP/IP-based Industrial Ethernet systems raises technological and organizational challenges. Issues span from routine checks of open networks through to complex technical troubleshooting of persistent faults, and require additional training within the enterprise.

HART-IP solution communicates at Ethernet speed
It will play an important role in the Internet of Things for process plants in the future
HART-IP can be run on Ethernet or WiFi, and enables vertical data integration for field devices all the way to the control room. Access to process variables allows support for device parameterization and advanced diagnostics. It will also play an important role in the Internet of Things for process plants in the future.
Fast Implementation of PROFIBUS PA Transmitters
Trends in process automation in recent years have been moving towards the use of digital fieldbuses.
Trends in process automation in recent years have been moving away from proprietary and analog communication technology, and towards the use of digital fieldbuses which have many advantages. One of the most important is the widely used PROFIBUS fieldbus with its PROFIBUS Process Automation (PA) application profile.
